I eat popcorn fairly often and I was wondering if I can improve on the taste with minimal effort. Do you guys know any good mix I could use instead of salt alone?

    You can get popcorn with sweet stuff in the US. My dad used to carmelize sugar in a pan and make cracker jack. And chocolate-covered.

    But it’s more-frequently a savory snack.

    I didn’t know that sweet popcorn was a bigger deal in Germany, interesting.

      Chocolate-covered? I’m in! Never even thought about that, very cool. I wonder if a cheesy popcorn would be possible as well.

      Yeah, if you can buy popcorn somewhere (at the movies, in rollercoaster parks etc.), if it does not say otherwise, it is always sweet. Some booths have both salty and sweet, but not so often.

        Oh, my friend, there’s this stuff called Chicago Mix that is half cheesy popcorn (just a cheesy powder) and half carmel popcorn. It’s a rather tasty blend of salty and sweet.
